indeed loved that fairest of all fair
quarters of our globe. At that season
the sun is always hot in these ATTITUDES;
but il is often tempered by cool and
salubrious breeze from the Gulf. So it
was upon this day. Many umbrellas
We're raised in the vast throng of which
we are to speak to ward off the burn
ing rays of the sun; but the air was
so cooled by the sea breeze that crept up
the harbor, past frowning walls and
shotted guns Of grim Moro Castle, and
through almost every quarter of the
city that the great concourse did not
seem to feel the heat.
The great square, surrounded by
white-walled buildings, and variegated
with great palm-trees and tropical
plants, was favorite resort of almost
all classes of Havana after sunset, when
the fiery heats of the day were over.
But it was yet many hours to sunset.
Whoever came out at this hour and
fingered about the Paseo must have
good reason for it--some other reason
beside mere idle lounging and chatting.
II seemed as il every class in the
great city had contributed its quota
to swell this crowd. Swarthy Spanish
military officers, In snowy uniforms
and gold lace; at least two regiments
Of soldiers, with neat uniforms and ac-
couterments, and shining muskets and
bayonets; hidalgos Of Spain, with their
families, carefully fenced away from the
fhrong; negroes and mulattoes of both
sexes, by the thousand; native Cubans,
dark and swarthy, and hardly TO be
distinguished from the Spaniards, sail
ors by the hundreds from ships in the
harbor, representing every nation that
had canvas upon the high seas, and
not few Americans and Engilshmen,

made up such a crowd as the Paseo had

heavy dreadnAught coat He looked
precisely what he Was-a son of the
sea, who had followed it two-thirds Of
his life, who was never at home when
ashore, and who had sailed to every
quarter Of the globe. His age was
nearly sixty years.
As he looked now upon the crowd
and the preparations for the execution,
his sturdy, honest face expressed an
indignation that he dared not utter;
but his feelings found relief from time
to time by running commentary NUT
tered to the young man beside him.

the wonder to me is, that the Spanish
blood could make such a hero as the
man they are going to murder. There

STIRRING INCIDENTS.


The two Spaniards whose comments
upon this tragic scene have been given
stood in the thick of the crowd, right
in front of the garrote, and not far
back from the rear rank of the soldiery.
Very near them were three men, deep
ly interested spectators of what was
occurring, and with whom the pages
of this truthful narrative will have
much to do.
One of them stood as much by him.
self as any one could in such mass of
human beings; or it would be better to
say that his actions showed that he had
no companions there. He was dressed
like many of the people of the better
class present, in cool suit of white
duck. An enormous sombrero, or
ide-brimmcd Mexican hat, almost
completely concealed his face, and a
great mass of curling black hair fell
over his shoulders. A person seeing so
much of him. and without observing
his face, would have thought that here
was certainly some jaunty son of a rich
Cuban planter, who had come to Ha-
vana to see the execution. But if he
had been closely observed. il must have
been seen that he was nervous and i'll
ut ease. He changed his position
often; he looked eagerly and anXiOusly
for the appearance of the fatal process
sion; and when the platform had been
occupied, he never removed his eyes
from the illustrious victim, and even
threw his sombrero back upon his head,
that his vision might not be interrupted.
From where he stood to the chair in
which General Lopez bravely met
his cruel doom, the distance may have
been fifty feet.
Directly behind this man stood the
two actors in our drama whom we are
now to introduces; little to their left
were the two loquacious Spaniards
The two first referred to were evident
ly Americans; both their compilations
aud their casual remarks to each other,
given in low tone, showed it. One
was tall, slim young man of perhaps
twenty-three, whose pale face was
lined with the marks of dissipation and
excess. He was decidedly handsome,
with his raven black hair, his broad
white forehead, his long straight nose
! and delicatcly curying lips; but he had
! pair of such cold blue eyes as made
you wonder that they could have been
mismated with his dark hair and eye
brows. The common expression of his
face was unprepossessing, even when
he smiled. 1t was not face to invite
the confidence of stranger
The contrast between him and his
companion was marked. The latter

HIS SECOND WIFE.


IN silence she rises
Her low dropping head
To list while he praises
The wife who is dead; ...,.
And ever he echoes the old refrain:
"Ohi that was life
With such wife,
Poor Susan Amanda Matilda jane"
She never was idle,
She never would tire;
Her temper could bridle a
Her servants inspire.
And ever her virtues he sang again:
"No one could be
Like her 70 me,
Poor Susan Amanda Matilda Janet"
She never spent money,
Was ever content;
To have new bonnet ~ f' -
Would never consent; g
Yet summer or winter, or shine or rain,
Would never stay
From church away,
His Susan Amanda Matilda janet
Was never too early, Es
Was never too late;
Her dinner was ready,
Or ready to wait.
With mortal eyes
Such peerless pies

Each button picture,
Each darn was gem.

When she was there

Till sudden there lies
An ember that glistens
Deep down In her eyes.

to them as Lopez One would have had
the rope, and the other the garrote.
"Will you be quiet, uncle, or do you
want to get both of us in trouble?"
The sailor was by this time red and
angry. He looked at his nephew with
something like contempt, and said:
II don't think you're likely to get
into any trouble, Louis, that would
come from sympathy with any one

The young man seemed not in the
least put out by the reproof. In fact,
he gave an irritating little laugh, which
did not at all soften his uncle's dis
pleasure.

The man In civilians dress appeared
to be earnestly talking to the officers
about him, and gesticulating with his
hands toward the crowd. The General
who had charge of the proceedings
peremptorily shook his head and
pointed to the chair. 1t was plain to
be seen that the victim had earnestly
besought leave to address the people,
and that his request had been positively
refused
He seated himself in the chair. The
executioner approached the lever.
There was but an instant between
this man and eternity!
His firm and unshrinking eye sur
veyed the vast sea of faces before him.
Once it softened, as he saw familiar
and friendly face. Suddenly he spoke
out in sonorous voice that was heard
to the remotest corners of the Paseo.

yelled the officer in command.
With the rolling thunder of twenty
drums did the power of naughty Spain
drown the fervent utterances of the
patriot-martyr. The exccutioner seized
the lever; he raised and lowered it; the
fatal screw penetrated the spinal mar
row of the victim; all was over in less
